An unvaccinated Capitol riot suspect and Proud Boys members was blasted by a federal judge for chewing through his masks during his arrest and then refused to wear one before his pretrial hearings.
Daniel Goodwyn allegedly chewed through at least five masks that the FBI gave him during his arrest in January and spit them out and then refused to wear one during a pretrial hearing in June.
In a virtual hearing Friday, US District Judge Reggie Walton said, 'We have a virus that is killing people. Why is it so hard to wear a mask?'
Goodwyn said because it 'stresses [him] out' and he doesn't believe masks reduced virus transmission.
Judge Walton snapped back like a rubber band: 'When did you go to medical school, sir? Do you have a medical degree?'
